Title 9 Women Only Sprint Triathlon - TriathlonSprint

Swim faster, that's it.

I couldn't get past people walking out of transition. No one was running! I loved the calm/laid back atmosphere of this race, but come on!! Getting the wetsuit off was tricky. Could have shaved some time off if I didn't wear wetsuit. Probably won't wear one next year and see what difference it makes.

No wetsuit. Wear cycling shoes next year!

My bike is holding me back!! I know they say it's more about the engine, but my hybrid is SO heavy and I have hybrid wheels, too. (Just found that out at the race this morning, I thought I had road bike wheels.) Hope Santa is good to me this year and I see some significant improvements in my bike times next season! I really feel like I did the best I could do with what I had today, but 12mph is kind of pathetic!

Ride a different bike, have cycling shoes, clip in.

Hated the bike racks! Had to use an adaptor for my hybrid bike wheels and someone took it while I was riding! So I had a horrible time trying to re-rack my bike (the wheels wouldn't fit into the tiny slots, ugh!). Again, most people WALKED their bikes back into transition and were blocking anyone trying to run. So frustrating!

New bike will fix the racking issue. Please Santa Please!!

Run felt pretty good. Probably means I could have pushed a little bit harder. Beautiful, dry day for a run. I definitely think my 1/2 marathon training that I'm currently doing helped make the 3+ miles fly by!

Run faster.

Water, walked a little.


MY BIKE! And not pushing it as hard as I could have.


Good overall race. Lots of volunteers and support. All women, so totally different vibe than my last (and first) tri. Felt more user-friendly and newbie welcoming. Would def do this race again!
